Permission was then sought from Norman Emerson & Sons to retain the company name and logo for the production. As George Emerson, the company’s managing director, explained, the story began when the Marvel studio rang him from the film set in England last October. The design team had come across an old ready mixed concrete truck mixer with the old company livery, name and contact numbers. Given the age of the truck, the distinctive red and white livery and associated company names and contact numbers were quite faded with wear and tear and general old age,” he said." - Link to "www.newsletter.co.uk" .
